There will be an option on gearing also, to lower the engine revs and improve fuel economy 🙏

Glad you enjoyed it Canada. Great country. Great roads. Just a few lack of corners ;-)

Designed by a fellow Canadian

Thanks. Will be having it fitted and trialed this weekend ;-)

Sadly not available from RSTech for the 350 J Series. They have tried, but it would mean making the front pulley / sprocket too small to fit into the engine casing. This would be too tight a turn for the ‘Gates’ belt, and not within their working parameters, so RSTech will not produce or put their name to it. But in India it is available. You could order from there. But it would be a gamble to the longevity of the belt.

It turns out that there is not sufficient room inside the front sprocket cover for the pulley on the new generation 350 engines. I do not want to make the front pulley any smaller due to the Gates minimum bend radius requirements and the detrimental effect on belt life. Pity, but the diameter required to fit inside the cover "will result in dismal belt life" as advised by Gates Engineering. Yes it could be done, but not by me thanks........................

Thanks TtT and Robert for your detailed information.

Trial fitting starts this weekend. Fingers crossed 🙏

Tomorrow is another test fit day. There will be a new video soon. Thank you for your interest 🙏

This weekend is trial fit 🙏

Sadly not for the 350 from this company. But others in India do produce.

@Teacher-T-Thailand I was thinking you might as well create and offer such mod parts...you are talented

@@freddy9210 ha ha not me. But RSTech sure. Sadly the pulley size for the 350 at the front for a 350 and too tight a turn for the belt. RSTech will not produce. Sorry

Sad,y not at this time. Not with the pulley size required for a quality long life belt. 🙏

😂👌🙏

When I rode the Continental with it fitted, the bike performed so much smoother and quieter. It will be available for the Meteor shortly hopefully. I won’t miss the oily mess from the chain that is for sure. As soon as I trial it I will post a video 👌🙏

Certainly will be available in Thailand soon 🙏

I don’t think so 😂

Competition bikes, dirt bikes, Moto cross. Sure. Chain all the way. But for cruisers , and riders looking to cruise and not race, even if there is power loss (which I think is minimal) the advantage of not ever having to lube or clean a chain is a winner.

The statement that belts are not as efficient as a chain is not true with these Gen 4 curvilinear toothed belts. From the Gates Engineering manual: “PolyChain® GT® Carbon® belt drive efficiency will be as high as 98%. This high efficiency is primarily due to the positive, no slip characteristic of synchronous belts. Since the belt has a thin profile, it flexes easily, thus resulting thus resulting in low hysteresis losses as evidenced by low heat buildup in the belt." and "Chain drives running unlubricated may generate significant heat buildup due to increased friction in the roller joints. Even properly lubricated chains running at higher speeds tend to throw off the oil due to centrifugal forces, making it difficult to maintain proper lubrication at the load bearing. " Consequently, chain drives are typically only 92-98% efficient." While there is lots of Gates marketing fluff out there, the Gates manual I referred to is an engineering design manual rather than propaganda. The "elsewhere" references I can find are either KZfaqrs with questionable engineering credentials, comparison with bicycles, or general statements about belts or V-belts, and not specifically about these Gen 4 belts. Here is an unbiased US Dept of Energy report giving that 98% efficiency, and comparing to V-belts www.energy.gov/sites/prod/files/2014/04/f15/replace_vbelts_motor_systemts5.pdf And a technical paper of chain VS belt with the same result: core.ac.uk/download/pdf/55693235.pdf

I’m sure they can post to India yes. 🙏

The chain and sprockets needs to be replaced every 30,000 km or so. The belt drive is good for 150,000km up. Belts don’t need constant lubrication, so keeps your bike clean. And absolutely no noise. Also no chain snatch on acceleration or deceleration. So all in all the belt is much better. Which is why Harley and Indian still use them. 🙏

@@Teacher-T-Thailand awesome hope this comes to india also

No oily mess, no adjustment, no maintenance, no carrying chain lube on a trip, quieter if that matters to you, lower long term cost, and smoother. The cool factor is subjective, as is the appreciation of the engineering involved

The South as nice as the North. Enjoy your SM🙏

Another week before longer belts arrive from America. The wheel base of the Super Meteor is longer also. 🙏

@@Teacher-T-Thailand thanks for quick reply. We do not have belt drive common in India. So would request you to educate us in your later video it's comparison with chain drive... Like belt wear and tear / life / precautions / expected change in performance and mileage etc. Would be great if it's possible for you...

@@pratikdominator87 Sure. Another 2 weeks before video out. A week to fit and a week to test. The belts used are’Gates” belts from America and life expectancy about 150,000 km!

We trial fitted over the weekend. Every thing went well. A new video will come out on Friday 🙏

@@Teacher-T-Thailand Awesome--I put a a belt drive on my Kawasaki 650 S and have not had a problem. I am thinking about buying a Super Meteor 650, but did not want a chain drive.
